Song # 1673.1- Do Not Love The World
See the video “#1673.1- Do Not Love The World†from “Our Gospel In Song†collection - https://youtu.be/78NSmnENZ68
In the Book of 1 John we read in John’s letter that he tells us not to love the world. For the world and all its sinful desires will pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives for ever. Even though John wrote his letter some 2,000 years ago, his message is still very relevant to us today.
Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him (1 John 2:15). For everything in the world, the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does - comes not from the Father but from the world (1 John 2:16). The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives for ever (1 John 2:17). This is the last hour, and you have heard that the antichrist is coming, even now, many antichrists have come. This is how we know it is the last hour (1 John 2:18). They went out from us, but they did not really belong to us. For if they had belonged to us, they would have remained with us, but their going showed that none of them belonged to us (1 John 2:19).
Thought for today: the more we look to heaven, the less we need on earth.
Thought for the future: a place in heaven is set for those who trust in Christ. Where will you spend your eternity?
